You probably don't know much about different baits if you are a beginner to bass fishing. Many people know about Shad Raps as well as Hair jigs. But there are more options. In this article I'll provide an overview and explanation of each type of bait. If you are familiar with these baits, skip to the next part.
Shad Rap
Rapala Shad Rap is an excellent crankbait that mimics baitfish. With its lifelike patterns and natural swimming action, it is perfect for both freshwater and saltwater bass fishing. This bait is constructed from premium Balsa wood for added durability and comes in a number of proven colors. Each model comes with stainless steel throughwire hooks which are both very effective at catching fish. The hook's unique shape allows for it to be cast far, and can also catch larger fish.
Hair jigs
The process for using hair jigs with bass baits is the same as other types. The first step is to blow the hairjig. Slowly hop the hair up and down, occasionally doing a high hop. This will give the bass time and space to swim over your bait, before you trigger a response bite. If you are fishing in colder areas, take your time. You don't want to make sudden jumps or trigger a reaction.

Jerkbaits
Jerkbaits can be used in all seasons, not just during warm months. They are also effective year-round. Jeerbaits are best used in cooler waters. Fishmasters sells several types of jerkbaits that are perfect for fishing in chilly waters. You can get the best results by slowing down and using different depths of these baits. Listed below are some tips to help you use jerkbaits effectively.
Spinnerbaits
There are many advantages to using spinnerbaits in bass fishing. These baits generate a unique vibration while being fished. The blade design allows the anglers to control the speed and run depth of the bait. Different blade designs and colors will result in different action patterns that will impact the fish's perception of your bait. Some spinnerbaits can be fished close to the bank while others are best when you fish in murky water.
Hollow-body and pond frogs
Hollow-body frogs are great baits for bass fishing due to their unique design. They can sit on the water or on vegetation and are able to be retrieved from the shoreline grass by paused at specific times. This extra motion will draw the bass and keep them hooked. The question is, how do you use them to catch bass? You can use hollow-body fowls as bass baits.

Jigging spoons
If you want to catch bass with jigging spooks as baits, then you need to understand their preferences. This lure can be used for bass during colder weather, as well as during summer when they are found in aquatic cover. Spoons are best used in fall when the bass begin to school. In this time, these predators feed on a large ball of baitfish. You should slow down your presentation of the bait to trigger reaction strikes and feeding strikes.
FAQ
Can I fish in the morning or at night?
Yes, but you will need to ensure that you are using artificial light. Fisherman use artificial light to attract fish. They work well when the sun goes down because fish become more active after dark.
Do you need a bobber to fish?
Yes. A bobber keeps the bait safe from being taken by other fisherman when they are fishing. There are two parts of a bobber, the float or the line. When casting a lure, you attach the hook to the end of the line, then cast out the line and let go of the rod. The lure could sink to the bottom if you don't have a bobber. This makes it harder for fish to take the bait.
What time does it take you to catch a salmon?
It depends on what size the fish are and how skilled the fisherman is. It takes anywhere from one minute to an hour to land a fish. The greater your chance of landing a big fish, the longer you wait.
Statistics
- About 40 percent of all fish are freshwater species. (takemefishing.org)
- You likely have a fish hooked if the bobber moves erratically for over 5 seconds. (tailoredtackle.com)
- To substantiate this theory, Knight attempted a systematic inquiry by considering the timing of 200 'record' catches, more than 90 percent were made during a new moon (when no moon is visible). (myfwc.com)
- For most freshwater species you are most likely to target when first starting out, a reel size of 20 to 30 should be more than enough! (strikeandcatch.com)
